Green Day lyrics (or songs) that describe your mood/feelings/life at the moment

[bouncingoffthewallbja]

So, I was looking around the forums here on GDC for a bit and I didn't happen to come across a thread like this (if there is, I apologise!!).

If you could choose lyrics from any Green Day song (or a song itself) to describe your current mood/feelings, or your life at the moment, what would they be? Mine  would probably be "a sullen riot penetrating through her mind" from She, literally because it feels like I have a million and one things going on in my head RN!!

(and 'feeling like a cello' is a perfectly acceptable answer!!!!!)

Also, I'm sorry if this thread is in the wrong place. I had no clue where to put it! 

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

I feel like a cello right now.

[Billie Hoe]

Wouldn't that technically belong in the Green Day chat?  

But to me it would be like "I declare I don't care no more, I'm burning up and out and growing bored"

Moved it over.

Whatsername.  Might end up seeing my ex tomorrow (unavoidably), obviously not looking forward to it.  The way I feel about her is very whatsername-ish at the moment; I can acknowledge the experiences we had together and look back fondly on them, but she isn't usually at the forefront of my mind anymore, and that's the way I'd like to keep it.

Dreaming, I was only dreaming

of another place & time... 

[unextraordinarygirl]

My mood today can only be described as Bouncing Off the Wall. I feel very hyper. 

[St. Jonny]

I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out. And I've stepped in line to walk amongst the dead.

[xLumian]

Outlaws.. Visited my hometown today, reminiscent of childhood.

[Shahd]

Apathy has rained on me,

Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream, so close to drowning but I don't mind...

I've lived inside this mental cave,

Throw my emotions in the grave, hell who needs them anyway...

 

Interesting, 3 people feel Burnout!

 

I'm going to hang out here a lot, I always quote Green Day to describe my mood

[End Of The World]

I am struggling with school at the moment. The trimester will end in just 2 weeks but I still have a lot of exams.

The verse that exactly describes my feeling this days is:

"When you're at the end of the road, and you lost all sense of control."

You've almost done it, but you're going crazy. And the atmosphere of 21 Guns is perfect for me now.

(Great thread, I like it a lot)

My name is Jimmy and I'm freaking out

Yes, it probably would! (I think that's where it is but I really have no clue!!!)

And that's a really good one!

Haha, yes! Burnout is getting a lot of love!

And thank you! I wanted a thread like this because no matter what's going on in life, you're bound to find Green Day lyrics/songs to describe it!!

I totally agree with you! I have exams in 3 weeks and I'm freaking out a bit because our exams this year determine our class placements for next year! 21 Guns has really been on my mind lately, so has Before the Lobotomy! And now that I think about it, these lyrics from 'Who Wrote Holden Caulfield?' are extremely applicable to me atm!

"There's a [boy] who fogs his world and now he's getting lazy
There's no motivation and frustration makes him crazy
He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting.
Someone help him up or he's gonna end up quitting"

Whatsername is a song which will always be special to me 

[Ric503]

Right now Outlaws because of the nostalgia that I'm having because I miss my old friends despite having some new ones that are nice too. Also Restless Heart Syndrome because I'm having a little bit of confusion in my heart lately since I met someone new and at the same time I can't forget another person....

[nothing_wrong_with_me]

"I'm rotting inside..."

[Minority103]

I'm in beetween those verses:

1- Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated so I loose my head or I bang it up against the wall (TOTALLY)
2- He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting.
3- Hearts are washed in misery drenched in gasoline. 
4- But when I think of Green Day i'm so CONCRETE DREEEAMS - HEY! 

[M0n3y]

I do not mind if all I am is just a friend to you, all I want to know right now is if you think about me too

[dannooo28]

Well, for life at the moment it'd be: "So when you think you're all alone/No one's left to come around/Drop like flies and empathize/And I know that I will someday/And I know that I will suffocate

But for current mood: "I got no supervision/Nothing will change my spirit's place to roam" because my friends and I recently have been sneaking out at night and urban exploring

As I walked out on the ledge
Are you scared to death to live?
I've been running all my life
Just to find a home that's for the restless
And the truth that's in the message
Making my way, away, away

These lines sum up the last 4 years of my life in such a perfect way that it's almost scary. It's a long story and I don't want to bore you with it, but I had a really tough time struggling with my health (and life) and I just can't believe how Billie managed to put into words what I felt and thought so many times, but could never speak out. I felt so bad at times that I couldn't even listen to Green Day anymore, the music I had spent most parts of my youth with didn't help me anymore. Alhtough it had always helped me before. Sometimes I thought I didn't just lose myself, but I lost them, too.

But I made my way, away, away I'm still breathing and now I love them more than ever, it feels like being a new fan all over again. "Still Breathing" kills me and saves my life at the same time. I love, love, love it!

[The Peacemaker567]

Well, there are a few....

1. "Dreaming. I was only dreaming of another place and time..."

2. "I declare I don't care no more!"

3. "I'm running late to somewhere now, I don't want to be...."

 

[Jesus of Seneca]

 i'm feeling very jesus of suburbia right now, except I haven't reached the 'you're leavin home!' part yet. 

[That Dude]

If it isn't obvious, I'm feeling very much too dumb to die.   I'm still breathing on my own, after all.   

There's that whole chunk of the RevRad that's so inspirational:   The album takes a hopeful turn started at "Outlaws" and going through "Too Dumb to Die".
